Chapter 935: A Mom Who Dreams of Getting Rich Every Day 35

“After questioning that nanny, I was afraid the information might be incorrect, so I went to inquire with the Mi family’s elderly couple. Sure enough, they were aware of this matter as well; they actually hadn’t given up looking for you all these years, they just couldn’t find a result. Moreover, later on, Guo Shuwei and Guo Shuyi also had issues, which left them unable to focus.” Zhou Xiang shook his head and sighed, “This time when I talked to them, they also asked about you, and asked me to pass a message: if you want to contact them, go ahead, if not, that’s fine too, but they will leave you with some inheritance.”

“Guo Shuwei and Guo Shuyi’s situation isn’t great; they probably won’t return to the country for the time being.”

Xie Musheng asked, “So, what is the truth about when I was lost at first?”

“Mi Mei had postpartum depression and often quarreled with Guo Changdong. One day, the two took the child outside, and somehow got into an argument again, actually believing you were the cause of their fights. In a fit of anger, they set you aside and didn’t care. Though they quickly turned back to search, by then, you were already gone.” Zhou Xiang said, and he too felt it was somewhat inconceivable.

Xie Musheng also found it laughable; it turned out he wasn’t accidentally lost, but because they had a fight.

According to his adoptive mother, he was found in a trash bin.

Whether Guo Changdong and his wife really set him aside or threw him into the trash bin didn’t seem to matter much anymore.

“This matter indeed left them with some shadows, so after giving birth to the twins, they paid great attention to them, managing all aspects very strictly. This often led to conflicts between the Mi family’s elderly couple and them. However, it backfired; the twins didn’t want to follow their arrangements. One loved gaming, and the other the world of animation, which they saw as not doing anything decent. They were very biased and stubborn, and eventually, both children fell sick. Guo Shuwei even attempted to jump off a building out of pressure. Fortunately, their home was a villa, and the floor wasn’t high, which only led to fractures. It was then that the Mi family’s elderly couple realized the severity and took the twins away.”

“At a reunion last time, I accidentally overheard my mom telling Mi Mei about the lost child. Presumably, they found out you’re still around, which is why they’ve shifted their thoughts back to you, leading to these extreme actions.” Zhou Xiang said.

In short, Guo Changdong and Mi Mei absolutely weren’t mentally sound.

“Thank you for bringing this news, but I don’t want any connection with the Mi family, as for the inheritance from the Mi family’s elderly couple, I’m not interested either.” Xie Musheng said. Whether it was Guo Changdong and his wife, or those associated with them who bore him no ill will, he didn’t want to have any ties with them.

If there was any involvement with the Mi family’s elderly couple, there must also be with Guo Changdong and his wife.

They never lived together in the first place; now they are just strangers. There’s really no need.

He has dreams, companions who work with him to realize those dreams, and excellent coaches and Teacher Xiao Qi. Even though his adoptive mother has passed away, he knows what familial love feels like and doesn’t long for that anymore.

“Alright.” Zhou Xiang didn’t say much more and hurriedly took his leave.

“Piao, if you don’t mind, I can share my parents with you for a while.” Chi Fang patted Xie Musheng on the shoulder.

Ma Xuan nodded in agreement, “I can share mine with you for a while too.”

“I guess it’s not possible for me; I hardly see mine a few times a year.” Shen Xiaoju shook his head, “But I can take you to see my grandma, she’s great.”

Jian Mo stayed silent, unsure of what to say; after all, his parents passed away, and he had relatives, but they were nothing more than connections of interest.

“Then I’ll arrange a couple more bodyguards for you.” After thinking, Jian Mo said.

Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.

“Hurry and go train; we’re leaving the day after tomorrow.” Ah Chen spoke up.

Only then did everyone scatter to begin training with their phones.

The homeroom teacher Zhang Fengya felt a bit helpless. This was the first time she encountered something like this. Normally, when the top student wants to take leave, it’s for ten days to half a month, and sometimes they might say it’s more than once a semester, depending on the competition’s situation.

She definitely plans to ask the parents for an explanation!

It was just the start of the semester.

But the parents were just beside them, smiling happily, clearly just there to help with the leave of absence.

They were going to participate in some gaming competition; as a teacher, even though she knew about some emerging industries, she still couldn’t understand why such good students would get involved with games.

But she couldn’t stop them.

If a student insists on taking leave, what can a teacher do?

“Mr. Zhang, trust me, even if I don’t attend classes, I will still be first at the end of the term. It’s just not attending school, not not studying, but when it comes to school tests and papers, we will still need the teachers’ help to pass them on to us.” Ah Chen said, “Rest assured, the first place will still belong to our class. If we have time in the middle, we will definitely come back to attend classes.”

“Perhaps the teacher should believe you?” Zhang Fengya said somewhat helplessly. She had to admit, she did indeed recognize An Chen’s capabilities, “An Chen, please don’t let the teacher down.”

Others asking for leave was even easier, after all, their grades weren’t as outstanding.

That afternoon after school, Ah Chen and the others set off for another city to participate in the competition.

The next day, the students in Class 1 found out Ah Chen and Jian Mo were absent again. Initially, they thought they might have something to do and didn’t pay much attention, but by the third day, they still hadn’t returned, prompting someone to ask.

Then they discovered that the few who were familiar with Ah Chen had also taken leave.

The girl sitting in front of Ah Chen revealed to everyone that Ah Chen and Jian Mo had gone to participate in a competition.

Upon querying, it became known that they were participating in a gaming competition.

High school students are no strangers to games, especially when it’s such a popular one; naturally, their interest peaked.

“If their team is really good, they might be on leave for months, and if they do have time in between, they should be able to come back to school, after all, not every day is a match. But to avoid any unexpected situations, generally, if they advance, they won’t come back.” The girl in the front row said.

“Isn’t this game generally participated in according to male participants? Why is An Chen also going? Is her level high?”

It’s not unheard of for female players to appear, but that was a long time ago and was only fleeting. In this era of exposure, if there really was an impressive female player, any team would be willing to take her in. In terms of professional gaming, females are still rare.

The girl in the front row, who had a good relationship with Ah Chen and evidently knew a lot, realized that eventually, Ah Chen would take to the stage, such news couldn’t be hidden, so she clarified, “Classmate An Chen isn’t attending as a player. She’s attending as a coach. Impressive, isn’t it? Hehe.”

Classmates in the class were somewhat shocked. Although they were students, some did follow professional gaming; whether it was about female players or female coaches, they were a rarity in the gaming industry.

“Do you know what their team is called? What’s An Chen’s in-game name?”

“If they aren’t really lame, then I’ll add a vice captain for them.”

“Hey, hey, they’re classmates; why not be the main captain? Give some face!”

Pei Chen sat in his seat, listening to the discussions, feeling a bit shocked, but also sensing a chance.

An Chen was too arrogant; could she really keep her first-place position like this while taking leave?

A while back, his mother was involved due to an incident at her school, and she was still under investigation, giving him a period of comfort, but when faced with An Chen, he still couldn’t relax his tense nerves.

But the other party actually took leave.
